Beshear

I will be fishing Beshear at the beginning of April. Can anyone tell me about this lake? I am looking for largemouth bass. Looking for information such as: how big the lake is, speed limits - are there a lot of stumps, general water clarity, types of lures that perform well, water temperatures. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

there is a lot of big bass there, creeks have some good grass, some parts of the main lake are shallow. love throwing a black and blue jig in the backs of creeks.

No speed limits, but it has a 150hp limit. One ramp that you have to pay to use. Not sure the cost, last time I have fished there it was $3.00 Very little parking, so get there and launch early. White spinnerbait in the grass does very well. Water color reminds me of Barkley Lake

Lots of rock bluffs lined up along the sides of Lake Beshears this is a very good lake to fish jigs. Try throwing rubber and silicone skirted jigs around the ends of these rock walls.

Best Jig colors ive found for that lake are:
(01) Solid black.
(02) Black w Blue.
(03) Brown w Blue.
(04) Grape & Cinnamon -or- Peanut Butter & Jelly.
(05) Grape & Cinnamon w Blue.
(06) Pumpkin Pepper w Blue.
(07) Pumpkin Pepper w Red.

Went to Beshear last weekend. Wasn't a great trip as far as fishing went. Water temps ranged from 55-60 degrees and it was above average wind. Water was muddy. Caught about 5 bass all day long and the best one was 13".

I fished the rock banks a lot. Anybody that is familiar with the lake know what types of areas in the lake produce better than others? Seems like I spent too much time in the wrong areas with the wrong lures. Any advice on this lake would be appreciated.
